Nextracker CEO Dan Shugar said renewable energy will be the predominant power source for data centers as opposed to natural gas.
Tech companies have serious sustainability goals and do not want to power data centers with fossil fuels, he said. Shugar pointed to the more than 1,500 gigawatts of power generating projects requesting connection to the electric grid. Solar represents 70% of those projects, or 1,028 gigawatts, according to the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, a Department of Energy sponsored lab.Microsoft says AI feature that captures screenshots on new PCs will be off by default after backlash
Whereas older data centers may have been 100 to 200 megawatts in size, some of the"monster data centers" today may be as big as 1,000 megawatts, Shugar said. That is equivalent to the power produced by the "The clients that are developing these data centers, they have very serious sustainability goals and they don't want their power coming from fossil," Shugar said."Basically renewable is lower cost than gas."with Brookfield Asset Management. The companies described the agreement as the largest renewable energy deal signed between two corporate partners to date.
"The point is there's a massive, massive portfolio of projects all across the United States that's already applied, put down interconnection deposits, has engineering studies advanced with utilities," he said.
